Raph is the sexiest turtle- He can kick anybody's ass any day and please a woman in ways a human couldn't even dream of.
He is a turtle of passion, anger and sadness. He wears red to illustrate his rage and anger. He is ashamed of his loss of control most of the time. His weapon is sai. Used in pair, they are defensive not offensive and designed to disable without killing.

A "Raphael" is a person who is funny, cool, and has a depressing side, he can be selfish sometimes and can ruin your day if he is having a bad day. He tries to be as nice as he can to people he meets but if you get him angry or sad he will have an alter-ego and instantly change from the happy-hyper Raphael to a disturbed-sad Raphael. Be aware he has super fast mood swings.

A name; commonly given to those of overwhelming intelligence, indisputable potential, exceedingly high SAT scores.

Silent, skinny, and shy, yet braver, bolder, brasher than any mortal you could hope to meet, Raphaels approach life with a quiet, yet brazenly authoritative audacity, which is unfortunately often misinterpreted as arrogance.

A justified and righteous arrogance, but arrogance nonetheless.

However, Raphaels are still widely and wildly loved, for not only their large, dense, muscles and innate athleticism, but for their ability to influence through the humanities. Painting, piano-playing, essay writing, baking, animating, singing, movie making -- trades of which the talent of a Raphael is unmatched, unrivaled, unlimited.

Despite their artistic prowess, Raphaels are innovators at heart; programming virtuosos, lovers of not only the arts but of technology: painters who program, bakers who build.

A super charming guy. The coolest guy you know. extremely sexy. Beyond talented. Often plays an instrument and can sing like a god. Tends to be one of those people who actually understands you without judging. Likes to skate and play basketball. Can't live without coffee.

Boy: Did you see that guy playing guitar yesterday?
Girl: Oh, you mean Raphael?
Boy: I want to be him.
Girl: I want to date him.

A person who's life is fueled by his passion for something on which others often look down on- often a very special person or hobby, a Raphael sees the bright in everything and sees talent and beauty when it comes his way. He can put the most complicated emotional feelings to paper. Often made fun of because his endless forgiveness, he will always forgive you if he knows you are being honest. He will never judge you and will always treat people he doesn't know with the greatest respect imaginable. If you are close to a person like this, you will never be able to let them go. Any person he dates will always love him no matter what. But hurt this person too much, you will learn the the forgiveness is not endless anymore and once you cross that line, you will regret it forever. Ask for forgiveness though, and he will probably forgive you. People like this are rare.

wow, look at him, he is the only one being nice to the biggest idiot of the school, how does he do it?
-I don't know, he must be a Raphael.

I just met this guy and we had the most interesting conversation I've had in years. I feel like my soul has been refreshed and my outlook on life revived.
